Chapter 474 — No One Will Stop

Another imperial minister present in the reception hall spoke up at this: "Ansu's southern region has been sealed off, and the Cecil family rules there with an iron grip—gathering intelligence is no easy matter. But this is only temporary—the Cecil family has not completely blocked the spread of the magic-net. It's said that in the Holy Spirit Plains region and a few parts of Ansu's eastern region, local nobles have already obtained magic-net blueprints circulating privately. With enough patience and the right price, those Ansu nobles will be easy to buy."

Emperor Luo Yan gave the minister a faint glance. "Goring, even if you obtained the blueprints and a physical sample, would you dare use them directly?"

The imperial minister named Goring paused, a thoughtful expression coming over his face.

"According to what we know, before the war broke out in Ansu's southern region, the Cecil family actively spread the magic-net on a large scale. And then? And then those foolish Ansu nobles laid the magic-net everywhere, so that wherever the Cecil family's armies fought, they had ample magical supply—that lesson was quite profound."

The war in Ansu's southern region had ended quickly, and the entire southern region had been sealed off swiftly after the war's end. But no wall in the world is truly windtight—before the southern region was completely sealed, a number of exiled knights and mercenaries still managed to escape, carrying away all manner of credible and incredible news, some of which fell into Typhon's hands.

This intelligence made Emperor Luo Yan realize the rise of the Cecils, and gave him a measure of wariness toward the "magic-net" that came from them.

And yet... the magic-net was still a good thing.

"We need magic-net technology, and all the more the technology to apply it, and these technologies must be in our own hands," Luo Yan Augustus said gravely, pressing his hand on the blueprint on the table. "Typhon needs its own magic-net."
